How do you genuinely become a better person?

Read about other people's experiences from all walks of life and do your best to understand why they're doing what they're doing. Study statistics, economics, and sociology. Volunteer for a cause you believe in. Take note of good things that happen to you, and good things that you do. Train yourself out of feeling ashamed of things, even if they're legitimately bad. You're better off changing your behavior and building bridges with those you've wronged than you are giving up on it. Buy more Fair Trade and plant-based products if you can.

Love yourself more

You can't. We are what we are just like tigers or dogs or elephants. We can alter our behavior though and get our emotional reactions in control and practice better behavior.

Evolution of the self takes time.
Often following life experiences that weren't good.
You go through different stages. Anger; frustration; sadness; loss etc. and come out the other side wiser; kinder; more understanding; more accepting etc.

Choices

I think it starts by realizing and accepting responsibility for the things you do wrong. Then working on understanding the real reasoning for why those were done, and not repeating those wrong ways of addressing things.

I think it stems from a sense of self awareness as well as self love that brings a wholesomeness to the way we be.

Listen to feedback with the intent to improve rather than defend.

in my case it generally means doing the opposite of what I want to do.

Definitely starts with an honest self evaluation

Strive to understand people and their thoughts, and actions, and always treat others the way you'd want to be treated.

By having a vision about getting better … will power, thought, awareness and making the right decisions …

You make better choices... period. Even if it's hard and you don't feel like it. You take responsibility and learn from the past and choose to do better. :/

Live not to just survive and get through another awful day....but to get to a place where you can begin to create something good for yourself and others.

It's a endless journey.

But sometimes when you manage to make someone's day, or you can recognize your self worth in doing what is right and good for yourself and others....it can feel oh so worth it.

A few ideas:

- Embrace change.
- Try new things (the "gooder" the better)
- Try to steer your bad habits into good ones.

Look for opportunities to get involved and serve in the community.

Knowing your own value. I’m not talking about anyone who thinks they deserve something. They don’t understand what personal worth actually is. I’m talking about everything you can mean to yourself. You are everything to you. Once you realize this, you can give freely to life which does makes one a much better person.

First define what a better person means to you...

You need time. Time to internally reflect, alone. Undisturbed. So you can let yourself really face your fears and wash away all the things you gotta get rid of inside

It's its own process but it's something that requires knowledge and patience

Try to avoid drama. Keep a distance from people that seem manipulative. Try better communication skills. I mean avoid triggering others in ways that they might try to retaliate against you. Be calm and think before you speak or type.

you have to purify your heart every day

no idea
may be by understanding everything better but then it seems like I've a long way to go
I don't understand so many things
It seems impossible

You hang around the Best.

You know what happens when hang out with just the Best?

You do your Best.

You have the Best times.

You become the Best.

For the Best reason!

That’s the best I can tell ya.

Unless you can do better than that?

That's different through everyone's personal perspective. As for me. I've been on autopilot for a while now.

It’s more like, what kind of person do you want to be that’s different than who/how you are now?

1. Respect yourself: stop giving yourself permission to treat yourself worse and place less value on yourself than other people. Don't put up with mistreatment from others. Ever. When you put a value on yourself people will rise to it. Don't do stupid, self-destructive things that reaffirm your instinct to devalue yourself.

Actually, that's a good start. If you do that you'll have momentum. If you're already doing that I can give you good next steps...

Reflect - take action

Reflect - take action

Reflect - take action

Just be there for others.
And pick yourself up when it all goes wrong.

Find things about yourself you don't like and take steps to change those things

Poor decisions
Bad judgement.

From mistakes, from own observations surrounding your life.

Know your values first. Without that, how do you even define it?

For me it was when I made enough mistakes.

You consciously try to live the virtues.

better for what?.

Stop judging others and judge yourself

Mmmm—hmmm . 💜
